ORIGIN

1. Middle English gon

中古英语 gon

2. from Old English gān * see  ghē-

源自 古英语 gān *参见 ghē-

USAGE

Go has long been used to describe the production of nonlinguistic noises, as inThe train went “toot.” The cow goes “moo.” In recent years, however,younger speakers have extended this use ofgo  to the report of speech, as inThen he goes, “You think you're  real smart, don't you.”  For speakers young enough to get away with it,this usage serves a useful purpose in informal spoken narrative as an explicit indicator of a direct quotation, particularly when the speaker wishes to mimic the accent or intonation of the original spoken source.Largely restricted to the “narrative present” used in vivid description,it is highly inappropriate in formal speech or writing.

Go 很久以来用来描述非语言学上的发声， 如在火车发出“突突”声， 牛“哞哞”地叫。 然而，近些年来，年轻的演讲者把go 的这一用法运用到演讲报告中去了， 如在接着他说道，“你认为你 的确 聪明，是吗？” 。 由于年轻人太年轻了而被人们忽视了这一误用，这一用法在非正式口语中作为直接引语的明显的指示词起到十分有益的作用，尤其在说话者想模仿原口语材料的重音或语调时，这一作用更明显。主要用于生动形象的“描述”里，限于陈述句现在时中，在正式的演讲或书面语中十分不适用

n.Games （名词）【游戏】

A Japanese game for two, played with counters on a board that is ruled with 19 vertical and 19 horizontal lines.

围棋：日本的一种两人棋戏，用棋子在一横竖皆有十九条交叉线的棋盘上下

葛传椝英语惯用法词典

1. 英文更多用go and inf. 而较少用go to inf.。【例如】Go and tell him the news. 去把消息告诉他。/ She thought of going and getting him. 她想到去找着他（参见come and inf., hurry up and inf., stay and inf., try and inf., be sure and inf. 等）。

2. 但是美国口语go在祈使句中，后面的inf. 往往前面既不加and也不加to。【例如】Go help your friend. 去帮你的朋友吧。/ Go buy a bottle of milk. 去买一瓶牛奶吧。不过，inf. 如果是sleep则要加to。【例如】Go to sleep! 睡觉去！

3. go + -ing通常用来指出门做某件休闲的事情，特别是体育、游览、购物之类。【例如】go boating 泛舟 / go bowling 打保龄球 / go camping 野营 / go climbing 爬山 / go dancing 跳舞 / go fishing 钓鱼（带有休闲性质，不是渔业的捕鱼）/ go golfing 打高尔夫球 / go hiking 漫步登山 / go horseback riding 或go riding 骑马 / go hunting 打猎 / go duck hunting 打野鸭 / go jogging 慢跑 / go running跑步 / go sailing 驾船 / go shooting 射击 / go shopping 购物，逛商店 / go skating 溜冰 / go skiing 滑雪 / go water skiing 滑水 / go swimming 游泳 / go walking 散步。如果go由于谈话双方的位置（见come条）要改为come，这样的结构仍然可用。【例如】Come swimming with us tomorrow. 明天同我们一起去游泳。

4. go + 形容词，表示经历某种变化（通常是不好的变化，属第三类或第四类动词）。【例如】go blind瞎了眼睛 / go deaf耳朵聋了 / go crazy发了疯 / go pale脸色发白 / go sour变酸了 / Her face went red. 她的脸变红了。/ The bread's gone hard. 面包硬了。/ The phone suddenly went dead. 电话忽然间不通了。/ Everything suddenly went quiet. 顿时鸦雀无声。但是近年来也常用于一些比较正式的场合，也不一定都是负面的。【例如】go public（股票）上市 / go digital with one's photos改用数码照相机照相 / The city has gone Democratic. 该市成了民主党的天下。/ Wall Street is going green. 华尔街也注意环保了。/ I worked for a building company until the end of 1999, then I went freelance. 我曾经在一家建筑公司供职到1999年年底，然后改为从事自由职业。

5. 美国口语to go可以表示“买了不在餐馆当场吃而带走”。【例如】Two burgers to go. 两份汉堡包拿走。“当场吃”说here即可。【例如】Here or to go? 在这里吃还是拿走？

6. have gone to带有“一去未回”的含义，例如说He has gone to London就是“他去了伦敦，还没有回来”。如果要说“他去过伦敦”，要改为He has been to London。

葛传椝英语惯用法词典

1．go 和 come 有时可以通用。参见 come 1

2．go 的过去分词 gone 有时被用作形容词，作“已去的”解，如 He is gone. is gone 着重在“已去”的状态，has gone 便着重在“去”的动作。

He looks like a man suddenly gone mad 里的 gone 也是用作形容词。

3．have gone 是“已经去而不在这里”的意思，说“已经去（而又来了）”不可说 have gone，所以下面各句都不对：

He has gone often recently.

He has gone twice this week.

He has gone only once.

该把各句里的 gone 改作 been away。假使指定到那里去，那末该说 He has been at Shanghai often recently 和 He has been there twice this week 等。

have gone 既然是“已经去而不在这里”的意思，所以不可说 I have gone。这句作“我已经去而不在这里”解，明明在这里才说话或写字，怎能说“不在这里”呢？但I had gone 是可以说的，因为在过去的某时“我”是可能“不在这里”的。又When I have gone 也是可以说的，因为这个从句指将来，不指现在，在将来的某时“我”是可能“不在这里”的。

比较下面两句：

He has gone to Beijing. （他已经到北京去了。［也许已经到达，也许尚在路上］）

He has been to Beijing. （他近来去过北京。［已经回来了］）

4．He has gone for five days 是“他已经去了，预备过五天回来”。不是“他已经去了五天”。He has been going for five days 是“他已经有五天要去而未去了”。实际不曾去。说“他已经去了五天”该说 He has been gone for five days 或 He has been away for five days。It is five days since he went 和 He went five days ago 都没有“他还未回来”的含意。

5．go 往往用现在时态或现在进行时态指将来，如 I go to Beijing next Friday 和 I am going to Beijing next Friday，作 I shall go to Beijing next Friday 解。

6．go on 后面接不定式和接现在分词意思不同，如 go on to read lesson ten 是“（读完了第九课）接着读第十课”，go on reading lesson ten 是“继续读第十课”。go on 后面接不定式指一个时刻（a point of time）的动作。例如：At half past three I went on to read lesson ten. go on 后面接现在分词指一段时间（a period of time）的动作。例如：For half an hour I went on reading lesson ten.

go on with 指一个时刻或一段时间的动作都可以。例如：After a little pause he went on with his speech. 和 He went on with his speech for half an hour.

7．注意下面第一句里用 to read，第二句里用 to reading：

Having read lesson nine I went on to read lesson ten.

From reading lesson nine I went on to reading lesson ten.

from...to...里的 to 是介词。

8．He began to go all sorts of places（他开始到各处去玩）里的 go 用作及物动词。注意后面是 places，假使把 places 改作 schools, theatres 等任何其他词，go 后面必须加上 to。

9．在口语里用作祈使语气或不定式的 go 后面的不定式有时没有 to，如 Go ask her 和 I'll go see my brother。

10．请别人先走时习惯上不说 Go first，该说 After you。

11．习惯上不说 Let me go away for a minute，该说 Excuse me a minute。

12．It is going to be fine tomorrow 里的 is going to...表示或然性。I am going to learn English 里的 am going to...表示意向。
